havent been on for ages but subies about to have a turbo upgrade so heres some pictures before it happens aiming for 300kwatw got it dynoed recently and broke 231kwatw with 20g meth

Hi im here i got a txt to check my messages and got few emails sorry im in between places at moment my house isnt avilable till 2/04, i could go into my side of of it but im not going to, everyone just needs to know i wasnt at fault, lack of contact both sides and i dont like being called a scammer, im still gonna find it hard to have internet connection till next week but im gonna email this guy through here offer him two options though ill find it hard to be losing out twice fold and make effort to check back few times over this week i hope this issue will be dealt with very soon Solja

im running a closed deck with v3 heads and post 98 wiseco forged pistons, seems to go well but it upped the compression ratio to 8:5:1

ive got JIC magic adjustables in my legacy, can be a hard ride at times but with 200+kw atw on the factory suspension i was bouncing around to much now the bd5 holds to the road, there 15way adustable damper 8kg front 5kg rear

ive ran a set of gfb pullys for a few years now, not much gain power wise but did notice it rev more freely

if i was on the track im sure id hit alot more but these stats are all daily driving, ill still raise rpm to 7500 bt as wrxer said i may get a shift light installed

im in the same situation as you funkytown on my v3 engine in the legacy, the rev limit has been set to 7200 and i quite often hits this to easy, link says 27 times out of 1600 engine starts , i was thinking raising it to 7500-7600 as with the 20g turbo it kept making power to redline but because of the lower rev limit and the intake charge was just starting to get abit to hot which will be sorted out with meth water injection

its definately worth it, theres a few bg5a stis down here in chch and i drive bd5a myself was a worthwhile swap and we done quite a few mods since. one was reloomed with v2 loom and rdl done mine with v3 loom

i use the profecb with remote switching system on steering wheel and works well havent had any problems

i got a factory v3 sti engine last year had 170k on the engine so possibly why it went but i got it dynoed at 184kw on vf23, went to a trackday and done bout 800km over that week and broke a rod i learnt my lesson so rebuilt a closed deck and forged it

sorry to hear the loss, i read that thread about a mines v3 ecu and found it hard to believe as have only ever seen gizzmo chips for such a ecu, im about 5mins from clunies or can ask around if you continue to hear back nothing cheers solja

cheers im not a fan of the small factory scoops and i needed the room there for a supercharger

hi all went for a drive this afternoon so decided to take some photos of my gt legacy

i recently got a tial 38mm mvs wastegate installed and plumbed back into downpipe this was on a v3 sti engine in a legacy, im proberly gonna wrap the 4-2-1 extractors and pipes etc soon heres some pics

both ecus will do a good job at helping the car run better but some people may say go for the power fc but keep in mind its 15-20 year old hardware and the software is almost as old, as said above power fc in most cases has to retain the afm where as link has away with it and many other sensors, i was looking into the piggyback-powerfc-link ecu things few months back and settled with v3/4 plugin link and havent regretted it

Hi i was wondering how i would go about removing the abs system from a bd5 and what would be required. I do understand it would have to be certed and ill be doing that in a few weeks, any info would be appreciated

when my legacy was reloomed with sti v3 loom and ran factory ej20k engine and factory 6s ecu boost was 16psi

i got 15psi on vf22 about 3700 and full boost of 19psi at 3900, this was with fmic,exhaust,g4link got 204 kw atw, at the moment im changing to a td05-20g and been told by almost everyone i need a minimum of 740cc+plus injectors to make the most of the 20g im hoping for 250kw

ive got a bd5 gt sedan converted to manual, by factory rs are sedan with manual, gt comes in sedan or wagon with gt sedan being auto and and gt wagon being manual or auto. on my old ej20h i was boosting 12psi primary and 15-16 secondary

yes at least a minute when dead cold or your bound to stall the car as the idle just dies, i reckon alot would prefer to keep icv as it can be such a bitch but i prefer it as its similar to driving a older car that needs encouragement

ive got v3/4 g4 link plugin just got to throttle the car for a minute in the morning till its up to temp

heres my second go at tidying things up with the flipped manifold

if you cant burrow a spare afm. try some afm cleaner you spray it onto the afm sensor its available butler automart stanmore rd see if that helps otherwise replacing afm may be only option, reguarding walbro 500hp intank id consider it a must if your ever replacing factory fuepump and can afford to do, if both these options dont sort the det id suggest getting it on a dyno for hour or two or at least to someone to check

Heres some useful information and ways to work out size of injectors and the Hp each injector supports So, how much power is this injector good for? That depends on the air/fuel ratio that is used, but a good rule of thumb is to divide this flow figure by 5 to get a hp capability. So, 440cc divided by 5 = 88hp maximum fuel flow with this injector. If you want to be pedantic, it's the mass of the fuel (not the volume) which is the critical factor. Assuming a "normal" fuel density, the mass of the fuel in pounds per hour can be worked out by Dividing the cc per minute figure by 10.5. For this injector, that gives a mass flow of 41.9 pounds/hour. To convert from pounds/hour to horsepower capability, multiply the figure by 2.04. So 41.9 pounds/hour multiplied by 2.04 gives a horsepower capability of 85.48hp - the same roughly as we got from the cc/minute figure. The power ratings discussed above are for each injector. This means that you need to multiply this rating by the number of injectors that are to be used. So, if you were using the 380cc greys,440cc yellows,565cc pinks in a 4 cylinder engine (with one injector per cylinder) the max power that the injectors could deliver fuel for would be about 304hp,352hp,445hp respectively. All of these figures are assuming that you are running an average fuel pressure of ~43psi and at 90% duty cycle. Though this is referring to common subaru injectors can be used as a rough guide across the board. Other common size of injectors are - 555cc,600cc,650cc,750cc,800cc,850cc,1000cc. Conversions 500cc per minute is approximately equal to 49lbs per hour which is equal to approximately 100hp. lbs/hour = cc per minute / 10.5 lbs per hour = HP / 2.04 cc per minute = lbs per hour x 10.5 cc per minute = HP x 5 HP = cc per minute / 5 HP = lbs per hour x 2.04 Hope this has helped and stops the guessing, always talk to your tuner about sizing of injectors and power goals before you make your final call. cheers Solja
